Halloween pictures
Change of plan this evening – it’s Halloween!
There’s a change of plans, due to unexpected circumstances. Tonight we’re celebrating Halloween (instead of the advertised Samba Percussion). Fun will still abound with quizzes, pumpkins to be carved and prizes to be won! Come along and please dress up if you’d like. Any themed raffle donations kindly accepted. See you at 7.30 pm.
(Apologies for the late notice on the website and any confusion with the post about Samba still going out yesterday – a busy day and just caught up with my laptop – Helen)
